    Connecting with Remote Desktop when Windows 10 is in sleep?


    Since I am on the road 4 days a week, I have my Windows 10 pc enter sleep after an hour of non-use.
    This prevents me from remote desktoping in when I am on the road. How can I have my PC wake, when I try to remote desktop in? My wireless network card/drivers do not have a windows 10 version out yet, I am using windows 8.1 version of drivers, and there is no option under advanced for Wake on anything...


    Thanks

    You would need to have a router that allows for WOL (Wake On Lan).
